BULL-BAITING.

This inhuman practice has been followed within the last fifty years, both at Chatburn and Waddington, near Clitheroe. This sport, however, is now quite extinct; but a lady still resides in Burnley who ran up into the attic when the last baited bull broke loose from its tormentors at Chatburn.
